Dow turns 567-point loss into 567-point gain as stocks rally

Thursday's declines mean the Dow and S&P 500 have now fallen by more than 10% from the record highs set in January, a threshold that analysts call a correction. This makes it the second time the traditional market would be falling within four days by more than 1,000 points. The S&P was also down after the volatile market creates a lot of uncertainties for the indices. It was up as much as 349 in early trading.

The blue-chip stock average's recent drubbing, which follows its record 1,175-point drop Monday, has been fueled by fears that a long period of low interest rates and tame inflation that have boosted the economy and fueled a rapid rise in stock prices may be nearing an end as economic conditions improve.

Investors are still weighing whether the sharp swings this week are the start of a deeper correction or just a temporary bump in the nine-year bull market, spurred by concerns over rising interest rates and bond yields. But the Dow is up 24 percent in the past 12 months the S&P 500 has gained 18 percent.
